Rejoice!


Take a walk
to clear your head
of all the tinsel.

Leave behind
the mittens
that you lose.

Ponder anew
the grace of God
in sending us His Christ.

Relax.
Reflect.
Rejoice.

Discover
slow-paced
productivity,

And definitely
do something
useful with your hands
(yup, that’s a nifty trick
to help you overcome
those listless, aimless,
mind-soul-and-body-wrenching
home-for-the-holidays
blues).

Take for granted,
Take a breath of fresh sub-zero air,
Take stock, take care, rejoice.

Rejoice, the Lord is King! Your Lord and King adore.
Rejoice, give thanks and sing and triumph evermore.
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice, again I say rejoice, rejoice!
